WESTERN STAR. A COMPANY BUILT ON ONE STRONG FOUNDATION.With 50 years of history, we’ve had our share of ground-breaking models. But none has stood the test of time like the 4900. Whether you’re looking for a truck to handle business on the highway or off, there’s few out there to match the power, dependability and durability of the Western Star® 4900.

Starting with our spacious all-steel cab and built with an incredible array of rugged, long-lasting components, each 4900 delivers incredible value as easily as it does on-the-job performance. But keep reading and find out how a new 4900 can help your business perform well into the black.

ALL HAIL THE STEEL CAB. Our galvannealed steel cabs are built to keep you safe. Bonded instead of riveted, precision welded for strength, then dipped and protected with a 12-stage e-coat process for long-lasting corrosion resistance and a superior paint finish. And for extreme-duty applications, Western Star also offers a severe service cab option with additional reinforcements to withstand anything you can throw at it.

KEEP YOUR COOL. It’s one of the many things a Western Star is known for. Whether extreme cold or extreme heat, we make sure to keep the engine at its designed operating temperature to maximize fuel economy and prolong engine life. How? By offering a range of field repairable radiators, from the standard 1,500 sq. in. aluminum crossflow radiator to the 1,875 sq. in. copper brass model. It’s that whole giving you a lot of options thing again.

CUSTOM. RIGHT FROM THE FACTORY.We might have mentioned Western Star will work to get you what you need. And you’ll find plenty of factory-installed options like twin steer chassis, lift axles and all-wheel drive. These OEM options are specifically designed for our trucks, so they not only save you time and money, they’re fully covered by your factory warranty.

COMFORT DOESN’T MAKE IT SOFT.IT JUST MAKES IT COMFORTABLE. There’s nothing wrong with a work space that’s a pleasure to work in. And this work space is a big pleasure. In fact, it’s one of the biggest available, especially between the seats and the shoulders. More than six-and-a-half feet where it’s needed most.

You’ll even find more storage, with new door panels with pockets that maximize space while providing a strong handhold while getting in. Of course, the best way to experience it is behind the wheel, which your nearest dealer can arrange for you. Try one on for size and see how it fits.

LUXURIOUS ACCOMMODATIONS. The sleeper on a 4900 is your home away from home. A space designed to fit you instead of the other way around. With real wood cabinets built so you can create the layout you want. And surrounded with appointments to make your time on the road even better.

EXTRA QUIET. EXTRA COMFORT. Insulation is something you won’t find in short supply. From our incredibly thick floor pad, to the foam insulation that’s found throughout, to the honeycomb construction of our sleepers, you’ll be well insulated from the world outside.
